You are watching a film in which two men are having a fight. They hit one another hard. At the start they only fight with their fists. But soon they begin hitting one another over the heads with chairs. And so it goes on until one of the men crashes (撞击) through a window and falls thirty feet to the ground below. He is dead!Of course he isn't really dead. With any luck he isn't even hurt. Why? Because the men who fall out of high windows or jump from fast moving trains, who crash cars of even catch fire, are professionals. They do this for a living. These men are called stuntmen. That is to say, they perform tricks.There are two sides to their work. They actually do most of the things you see on the screen. For example, they fall from a high building. However, they do not fall on to hard ground but on to empty cardboard boxes covered with a mattress (床垫). Again, when they hit one another with chairs, the chairs are made of soft wood and when they crash through windows, the glass is made of sugar!But although their work depends on trick of this sort, it also requires a high degree of skill and training. Often a stuntman' s success depends on careful timing. For example, when he is "blown up" in a battle scene, he has to jump out of the way of the explosion just at the right moment.

Naturally stuntmen are well paid for their work, but they lead dangerous lives. They often get seriously injured, and sometimes killed. A Norwegian stuntman, for example, skied over the edge of a cliff (悬崖) a thousand feet high. His parachute (降落伞) failed to open, and he was killed. In spite of all the risks, this is no longer a profession for men only. Men no longer dress up as women when actresses have to perform some dangerous action. For nowadays there are stuntgirls tool

D. often fight each other for their lives

2. Stuntmen earn their living by ______.

A. playing their dirty tricks

D. jumping from fast moving trains

3. When a stuntman falls from a high building, ______.

A.he needs little protection

B. he will be covered with a mattress

C.his life is endangered

D. his safety is generally all right

4. Which of the following is the main factor (因素) of a successful performance?

Activity which was almost unknown to the learned in the early days of the history, while during the fifteenth century the term "reading" undoubtedly meant reading aloud. Only during the nineteenth century did silent reading become popular.

One should be careful, however, of supposing that silent reading came about simply because reading aloud is distraction (分散注意力) to others. Examination of reasons connected with the historical development of silent reading shows that it became the usual mode of reading for most adult reading tasks mainly because the tasks themselves changed in character.

The last century saw a gradual increase in literacy (读写能力) and thus in the number of readers. As readers increased, so the number of listeners dropped, and thus there was some reduction in the need to read aloud. As reading for the benefit of listeners grew less common, so came the popularity of reading as a private activity in such public places as libraries, trains and offices, where reading aloud would disturb other readers in a way.

Towards the end of the century there was still heated argument over whether books should be used for information or treated respectfully, and over whether the reading of material such as newspapers was in some way mentally weakening. Indeed this argument remains with us still in education. However, whatever its advantages, the old shared literacy culture had gone and was replaced by the printed mass media (媒介) on the one hand and by books and magazines for a specialized readership on the other.

By the end of the century students were being advised to have some new ideas of books and to use skills in reading them which were not proper, if not impossible, for the oral reader. The social, cultural, and technological developments in the century had greatly changed what the term "reading" referred to.

1. Why was reading aloud common before the nineteenth century?

A. Because silent reading had not been discovered.

B. Because there were few places for private reading.

C. Because few people could read for themselves.

D. Because people depended on reading for enjoyment.

2. The development of silent reading during the nineteenth century showed .

A. a change in the position of literate people

B. a change in the nature of reading

C. an increase in the number of books

D. an increase in the average age of readers

3. Educationalists are still arguing about _________.

A. the importance of silent reading

B. the amount of information provided by books and newspapers

C. the effects of reading on health

D. the value of different types of reading material

4. What is the writer of this passage attempting to do?

A. To explain how present day reading habits developed.

B. To change people's way to read.

C. To show how reading methods have improved.

D. To encourage the growth of reading.

In some ways, the United States has made some progress. Fires no longer destroy 18,000 buildings as they did in the Great Chicago Fire of 1871, or kill half a town of 2,400 people, as they did the same night in Peshtigo, Wisconsin. Other than the Beverly Hill Supper Club fire in Kentucky in 1977, it has been four decades since more than 100 Americans died in a fire.

But even with such successes, the United States still has one of the worst fire death rates in the world. Safety experts say the problem is neither money nor technology, but the indifference(无所谓) of a country that just will not take fires seriously enough.

American fire departments are some of the world's fastest and best-equipped. They have to be. The United States has twice Japan's population, and 40 times as many fires. It spends far less on preventing fires than on fighting them. And American fire -safety lessons are aimed almost entirely at children, who die in large numbers in fires but who, against popular beliefs, start very few of them.

Experts say the error is an opinion that fires are not really anyone's fault. That is not so in other countries, where both public education and the law treat fires as either a personal failing or a crime(罪行). Japan has many wood houses; of the 48 fires in world history that burned more than 10,000 buildings, Japan has had 27. Punishment for causing a big fire can be as severe as life imprisonment.

In the United States, most education dollars are spent in elementary schools. But, the lessons are aimed at too limited a number of people; just 9 percent of all fire deaths are caused by children playing with matches.

The United States continues to depend more on technology than laws or social pressure. There are smoke detectors in 85 percent of all homes. Some local building laws now require home sprinklers (喷水装置). New heaters and irons shut themselves off if they are tipped.

1. The reason why so many Americans die in fires is that _____.

A. they took no interest in new technology

B. they did not pay great attention to preventing fires

C. they showed indifference to fighting fires

D. they did not spend enough money on fire equipment

2. It can be inferred from the passage that______.

A. fire safety lessons should not be aimed only at American children

B. American children have not received enough education of fire safety lessons

C. Japan is better equipped with fire equipment than the United States

D. America's large population leads to more fires

3. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?

A. There has been no great fire in the USA in recent 40 years that leads to high death rate.

B. There have been several great fires in the USA in recent 40 years that lead to high death rate.

C. There has been only one great fire in the USA in recent 40 years that led to high death rate.

D. The fire in Kentucky in 1977 made only a few people killed.

Nuclear power's(核能的) danger to health, safety, and even life itself can be described in one word; radiation(辐射).

Nuclear radiation has a certain mystery about it, partly because it cannot be detected (探测) by human senses. It can't be seen or heard, or touched or tasted, even though it may be all around us. There are other things like that. For example, radio waves are all around us but we can't detect them, sense them, without a radio receiver. Similarly, we can't sense radioactivity without a radiation detector. But unlike common radio waves, nuclear radiation is not harmless to human beings and other living things.

At very high levels, radiation can kill an animal or human being outright by killing masses of cells (细胞) in important organs (器官). But even the lowest levels can do serious damage. There is no level of radiation that is completely safe. If the radiation does not hit anything important, the damage may not be significant. This is the case when only a few cells are hit, and if they are killed outright. Your body will replace the dead cells with healthy ones. But if the few cells are only damaged, and if they reproduce themselves, you may be in trouble. They reproduce themselves in an unusual way. They can grow into cancer. Sometimes this does not show up for many years.

This is another reason for some of the mystery about nuclear radiation. Serious damage can be done without the knowledge of the person at the time that damage has occurred. A person can be irradiated(放射治疗) and feel fine, then die of cancer five, ten, or twenty years later as a result. Or a child can be born weak or easy to get serious illness as a result of radiation absorbed by its grandparents.

Radiation can hurt us. We must know the truth.

1. According to the passage, the danger of nuclear power lies in __________.

A. nuclear mystery B. radiation detection

C. radiation level D. nuclear radiation

2. Radiation can lead to serious results even at the lowest level ________.

A. when it kills few cells

B. if it damages few cells

C. though the damaged cells can repair themselves

D. unless the damaged cells can reproduce themselves

3. Radiation can hurt us in the way that it can _____.

A. kill large numbers of cells in main organs so as to cause death immediately

B. damage cells which may grow into cancer years later

C. affect the healthy growth of our younger generation

D. lead to all of the above results

4. Which of the following can be best inferred from the passage?

A. The importance of protection from radiation cannot be overemphasized (过分强调).

B. The mystery about radiation remains unsolved.

C. Cancer is mainly caused by radiation.

D. Radiation can hurt those who do not know about its danger.

Today is the date of that afternoon in April a year ago when I first saw the strange and attractive doll(玩具娃娃)in the window of Abe Sheftel's toy shop on Third Avenue near Fifteenth Street, just around the corner from my office, where the plate on the door reads. Dr Samuel Amory. I remember just how it was that day: the first sign of spring floated across the East River, mixing with the soft - coal smoke from the factories and the street smells of the poor neighbourhood. As I turned the corner on my way to work and came to Sheftel's, I was made once more known of the poor collection of toys in the dusty window, and I remembered the coming birthday of a small niece of mine in Cleveland, to whom I was in the habit of sending small gifts. Therefore, I stopped and examined the window to see if there might be anything suitable, and looked at the collection of unattractive objects--a red toy fire engine, some lead soldiers, cheap baseballs, bottles of ink, pens, yellowed envelopes, and advertisements for soft - drinks. And thus it was that my eyes finally came to rest upon the doll stored away in one corner, a doll with the strangest, most charming expression on her face. I could not wholly make her out, due to the shadows and the film of dust through which I was looking, but I was sure that a deep impression had been made upon me as though I had run into a person, as one does sometimes with a stranger, with whose personality one is deeply impressed.

1. What made an impression on the author?

A. The doll's unusual face.

B. The collection of toys.

C. A stranger he met at the store.

D. The beauty and size of the doll.

2. Why does the author mention his niece?

A. She likes dolls.

B. The doll looks like her.

C. She lives near Sheftel's.

D. He was looking for a gift for her.

3. Why did the writer go past Sheftel's?

A. He was on his way to school.

B. He was looking for a present for his niece.

C. He wanted to buy some envelopes.

D. None of the above is right.

4. The story takes place in the ______.

A. early summer B. early spring

C. midsummer D. late spring

Technology is the application (应用)of knowledge to production. Thanks to modern technology, we have been able to increase greatly the efficiency of our work force. New machines and new methods have helped cut down time and expense while increasing overall output. This has meant more production and a higher standard of living. For most of us in America, modern technology is thought of as the reason why we can have cars and television sets. However, technology has also increased the amount of food available (有用的)to us, by means of modern farming machinery and animalbreeding techniques, and has extended our life span via()medical technology.

Will mankind continue to live longer and have a higher quality of life? In large measure the answer depends on technology and our ability to use it widely. If we keep making progress as we have over the past fifty years, the answer is definitely yes. The advancement of technology depends upon research and development, and the latest statistics (统计) show that the united States is continuing to pump billions of dollars annually(每年) into such efforts. So while we are running out of some scarce resources (少的资源) we may well find technological substitutes (代用品) for many of them through our research programs.

Therefore, in the final analysis the three major factors of production (land, labor and capital) are all influenced by technology. When we need new skills on techniques in medicine, people will start developing new technology to meet those needs. As equipment proves to be slow or inefficient, new machines will be invented. Technology responds to our needs in helping us maintain our standard of living.

1. What is the best title for the passage?

A. The definition of technology

B. Modern technology

C. The application of technology

D. The development of technology

2. From the passage, we can infer that this article is probably _________.

A. a part of the introduction to American business

B. followed by the passage talking about factors of production

C. taken from a learned journal

D. Both A and B

3. Which is the main idea of the passage?

A. Modern technology is the key to the improvement of standard of living.

B. The three major factors of production-land, labor and capital are all influenced by technology.

C. Technology is the response to our needs.

D. The United States is making great efforts to advance its technology.

4. According to the passage, people can live a long life with the help of _________.

A. higer quality of life

B. medical technology

C. modem farming machinery

D. technological substitute

The volcano is one of the most surprising frightening forces of nature. Maybe you have seen pictures of these“fireworks”of nature. Sometimes when a volcano erupts, a very large wall of melted rock moves down the side of a mountain. It looks like a “river of tire.”Sometimes volcanoes explode, throwing the melted rock and ashes(灰)high into the air. But where does this melted rock come from?

The earth is made up of many layers(层). The top layer that we see is called the crust. Under the crust are many layers of hard rock. But far, far beneath the crust whose rock is so hot, that it is soft. In some places it even melts. The melted rock is called magma. Sometimes the magma breaks out to the surface through cracks(爆裂声)in the crust. These cracks are volcanoes.

Most people think of mountains when they think of volcanoes. But not every mountain is a volcano. A volcano is simply the opening in the earth from which the magma escapes. The hot magma, or lava as it is called, cols and builds up on the surface of the earth. Over thousands of years, this pile of cooled lava can grow to be very, very big. For example, the highest mountain in Africa, Kilimanjaro, is a volcano. It towers more than 16,000 feet above the ground around it.

1.The underlined word“erupts”means .

A. moves down B. breaks away

C. builds up D. suddenly throws out lava

2.Which words in the passage have the same meaning as “melted rock”?

A.“Volcano”and“explode”. B.“Crust”and“hard rock”

C.“magma”and“lava” D.“Volcano”and“magma”

3.Which is the correct order of the layers of the earth(beginning with the top layer)?

A. crust-hard rock-magma-soft rock

B. crust-hard rock- soft rock-magma

C. magma-soft rock- hard rock-crust

D. volcano-cracks-magma-crust

4.The best title(标题) of the passage should be u.

A. The Volcano B. Kilimanjaro Volcano

C. The Mountains D. The Melted Rock

高考英语语法填空技巧_关于高考英语短文语法填空

关于高三英语复习中的阅读理解题,成都美博的老师为同学们梳理了四类题型的相关解题方法及攻略,供同学们酌情参考:

一、主旨大意题

标志词:title,subject,main,idea,topic,theme 等词

1. 归纳标题题

特点:短小精悍,一般多为一个短语,涵盖性强,一般能覆盖全文意思,精确性强,表达范围要恰当,不能随意改变语意程度或色彩。

2. 概括大意题

特点:包括寻找段落大意(topic)和文章中心思想(main idea)

解题技巧:

A. 位于段首

往往在文章开头,先点出主题,然后围绕主题做具体陈述。

判断第一句是否为主题句,可以分析段落首句与第二、三句的关系,若第二句开始就对第一句进行说明,则第一句就是主题句。

有些段落,主题句后面有明显引出细节的信号词,如:for example, an example of, first, second, next,last,finally,to begin with, also, ,besides,one...the other,some ,others等

B. 位于段尾

有些文章,会在开头列举事实,然后通过论证阐述作者的核心论点。当一种观点不易解释清楚或不易别人接受时,主题句便会到段落末尾才出现。可以通过引出结论的信号词,来确定主题句的位置在段尾,如:so,therefore,thus,consequently,in conclusion,in short,

in a word,to sum up等

C. 位于段中

先介绍背景和细节,接着用一句综合性或概括性的话概括前面的内容,然后再围绕主题展开对有关问题的深入讨论,这种主题句往往会在段落中间出现。先提出问题,,然后给予回答/点出主题思想(主题句),最后给予解释

D. 首尾呼应

主题句在段落开头和结尾先后出现,但并非简单重复,后一个主题句对该主题作最后的评述,或对要点作一概括,或使之引申留给读者去思考

E. 无明确主题句

找关键词(出现频率较高),归纳总结

注意:

新题型中有一个选项是干扰项,易犯三种错误:

(1)表述过于表面,只涵盖该段个别细节

(2)表述过于笼统,已经超出该段内容

(3)表述于段落内容无关,在段落中找不到相关依据

二、细节理解题

考查内容主要涉及时间、地点、人物、事件、原因、结果、数字等议论文中例证细节和定义类细节。这类题答案一般都能在文中找到。但答案不一定是文中原句,要根据文章信息自行组织语句回答问题。

1. 事实细节题——寻读法

直接理解题:who,what,which,when,where,why,how提问,或判断正误;

间接理解题:需与原文信息转换,表达上与原文有差异

2. 排列顺序题——首尾定位法

找出第一个事件和最后一个事件,用排除法缩小范围

3. 图文匹配题——按图索骥理清线索

设题形式:给出图表,根据图表提问问题

4. 数字计算题——(方法:审题——带着问题找细节-对比、分析、计算)

可直接找到相关细节,但需经过计算得到答案

三、推理判断题

主要考查对文章隐含或深层含义的理解能力,要求根据内容做出合乎逻辑的判断,包括对作者观点的理解、态度的判断、对修辞语气、隐含意思的理解等。

题干关键词:infer(推断),indicate(象征、暗示),imply/suggest(暗示),conclude(作出结论),assume(假定、设想)

1. 细节推理判断题

一般可根据短文提供的信息或借助生活常识进行推理判断

2. 预测推理判断题

根据语篇对文章接下来的内容或可能的结局进行猜测

3. 推测文章来源或读者对象

4. 写作意图、目的、态度推断题

a.询问写作目的,选项词常为:explain(解释),prove(证明),persuade(劝说),advise(劝告),comment(评论),praise(赞扬),criticize(批评),entertain(娱乐),demonstrate(举例说明),analyze(分析)等

b.询问语气态度,选项词常为:neutral(中立的),sympathetic(同情的),satisfied(满意的),enthusiastic(热情的),subjective(主观的),pessimistic(悲观的),optimistic(乐观的),critical(批评的),doubtful(怀疑的);hostile(敌对的)等

解题技巧:

1. 文中直接陈述的内容不能选,要选择根据文章推理出来的选项。

2. 选择的答案一定要在文中找到依据或者理由。

3. 要忠实于原文,以文章提供的事实和线索为依据,不能以自己的观点代替作者想法;不要脱离原文主观臆断。

四、语义猜测题

考点:

1. 猜测某个词、词组、句子的意义

2. 对文中的多义词或词组进行定义

3. 判断某个代词的指代对象

解题技巧:

1. 通过因果关系猜词

找出生词与上下文之间的逻辑关系,可借助关联词(because,as,since,for,thus,as a result,of course,therefore等)

2. 通过同义词和反义词的关系猜词

通过同义词猜词,一要看由and或or连接的同义词词组;二要看进一步解释过程中使用的同义词

通过反义词猜词,一要看表转折关系的连词或副词;二要看与not搭配的表示否定的词语

3. 通过构词法猜词

根据前缀、后缀、复合、派生等构词法判断词义

4. 通过定义或释义关系来推测词义

这种同义或释义关系常用is,or,that is,in other word,be called

5. 通过句法功能来推测语义

6. 通过描述猜词

7. 通过常识猜词
